Re: ...Cultural Clash...
I agree. While it is fine to check up on your kids when they are young, their activities and other things for protection etc, the parents should give the children some space and vice versa. The thing that I have observed among most desi parents and which I really hate is that the parents treat kids like kids (until the kid gets married). It's like you are a 7 yr old even when you are 24, and the moment you marry, you become "older"
